Synopsis

The Devil's Rejects director Rob Zombie resurrects one of the most notorious slashers in screen history with this re-imagining of the 1978 John Carpenter classic that spawned numerous sequels and countless imitators. As a child, young Michael Myers (Daeg Faerch) committed one of the most unspeakable crimes imaginable. Subsequently locked in an asylum and placed under the care of Dr. Loomis (Malcolm McDowell), the hollow-eyed boy grew into an emotionless man determined to escape back to his hometown of Haddonfield and complete the murderous mission that he began so many years back. These days, the long-abandoned Myers house sits decrepit and overgrown on a peaceful suburban street, its boarded windows and rotting wood a silent testament to the slaughter that has haunted Haddonfield for decades. Now Michael Myers (Tyler Mane) is back, and as the children of this typical Midwestern town fill the sidewalks for a fun-filled night of tricks and treats, Haddonfield is about to find out that there is no escape from pure evil. Brad Dourif, William Forsythe, Udo Kier, Dee Wallace, Sheri Moon Zombie, Danny Trejo, and Adrienne Barbeau co-star. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

LOVE ZOMBIE!!!! love all of his movies and I love the remake. I did hear someone remade friday the 13th and I hope its him. I love that he makes movies that are set in the 70's.

I was very impressed with this remake of Halloween. It was much better than the original in my opinion. That is rare for remakes. Rob Zombie doesn't really follow the original story either. He's reinvented Michael Myers from the ground up and I like Rob's version of the character's story much better. This DVD also comes with a WHOLE LOT OF EXTRAS. If you're someone who likes getting a lot of extra stuff on your DVD to watch after you've seen the movie, then you get your money's worth with this one.
